Overview
Gem’s Chrome extension allows teams to source talent directly from platforms like LinkedIn and Indeed, capture prospective candidate information, and track interactions all in one place. You can add talent to Gem with a single click — the extension instantly populates key details about the prospect.
With the Chrome extension, teams can:
- Source talent directly from any website or social platform, including LinkedIn, GitHub, Indeed, SeekOut, Hired.com, and more.
- Centralize every candidate interaction for a comprehensive view of engagement history.
- Find email addresses with ease.
- Seamlessly upload candidate details to their ATS.
- Automate personalized outreach and follow-ups with email sequences.
Install the Gem Chrome extension
There are two ways to install the Chrome extension:
- Log in to Gem. If your Chrome extension isn’t installed, Gem will automatically recognize this and prompt you to download it.
- Alternatively, download the extension directly from the Chrome Web Store.
Reinstall the Chrome extension
If you’re experiencing issues with the Chrome extension or it’s not functioning as expected, you may need to reinstall it. To do so, follow these steps:
- Right-click the Gem extension icon in your Chrome toolbar, then select Remove from Chrome, and confirm the removal.
2, Next, reinstall the extension from the Chrome Web Store, or visit Gem and follow the steps to get the latest extension (Gem will automatically recognize that your extension is no longer installed and will prompt you to add it).
Note that you might see a warning in your extension list along the lines of “This extension failed to modify the response header…” As long as you installed the Gem extension after conflicting extensions, this error should appear under the other extension. This is expected and a limitation of Chrome — as long as it’s installed after the conflicting extensions, Gem modifies the response header in a way that is compatible with all other extensions. All extensions should work normally, even though you may see this warning in the extension list for the other extension.
